Paper alligator
Why did we do these funny and durable alligators? – because the whole KROKOTAK family is on a long summer trip (we are even on another continent) … with all the things that we had to take with us in the suitcases, the room for the toys was so scarce ….
This time, instead of a crocodile, we made an alligator, as it is more typical for America 🙂
You will need:
- an A4 sheet of paper
- glue, scissors, felt-tip pen
- a strip of white paper (for the teeth).
Fold the paper making 8 equal bands. Cut them as shown on the picture above. At the end you should have 2 long, 2 thin, and 11 short bands.
The body of the alligator is made by 10 short bands. 
These are the remaining parts for the rest of the alligator.
The tail is made from a long band. Insert it and glue it at the end.
The mouth is made from the second long band.
The legs are made from the two thin bands, which are folded by the middle, glued and folded in both ends.
The eyes are made by the last, eleventh, short band.
To make your alligator scary apply the sharp teeth 🙂

These are fun!
Next weekend it will give it a try!
Thanks
Going to make this with the kids at the boys and girls club! I think they will love it! Love that it is cool enough for the older kids and easy enough for the younger kids!
ОЧЕНЬ ВЕСЁЛАЯ ИГРУШКА! Я С ПОДРУГОЙ ЕЩЕ ДОМИК ДЛЯ НИХ ПОСТРОИЛА И ИГРАЕМ!
Lovely craft which both boys and girls really enjoyed – thanks so much for sharing! Some of the children added a thread at the alligator’s nose because they found it cool to have a walk with an alligator 😉 Love this website by the way!
Great idea, my boys really enjoyed making one.
It little bit to hard for my three year old, but perfect for the oldest of six.
Thanks for sharing
What size is A4 paper? This is a cute idea.
